"THEATERS MAY SHUT DOWN TEMPORARILY IF THERE IS NO DIWALI RELEASE"

This Diwali, Vijay's Mersal is hitting the screens. But do we have functional theaters in Tamil Nadu? It looks like its a desperate thought. We have been waiting for a possible decision for the past week with absolute doubt as to whether the Local entertainment tax will be withdrawn anytime soon or not.
Producer and columnist G Dhananjayan took to Twitter to express his disappointment and views on the same. He put up continuous tweets which have compiled as one statement. Read ahead to find out what he said;
"#Diwali is too big a festival holiday season to miss a new, high budget film like #Mersal...hence, I am hopeful some good solution soon :-). The industry is united to get Local Tax withdrawn &ticket price rationalization. May take couple of days more but surely a good solution :). I am afraid theatres may shut shop temporarily due to lack of audience if no new films for Diwali... crucial days ahead for Tamil Cinema 😥🙏🙏"

Gautham Karthik is currently on cloud 9 after the success of his recent release, Rangoon. The film was received very well by fans and critics alike. Now, along with RJ Balaji and Shraddha Srinath, he prepares for the release of his next flick, Ivan Thanthiran. R Kannan helms this project and SS Thaman composes the music.
The latest update is that the team has been touring cities in Tamil Nadu, to promote their film in the theaters. We got in touch with the distributor G Dhananjayan to find out what the team is up to, and he said, ''This is the first time a team has gone to 4 cities. We visited theaters and malls in Madurai, Tiruchy, Salem and Coimbatore and there was a great response. Gautham was mobbed by fans and there was a good response for the songs and the trailers''.
30th June is the date that has been locked by the makers and they seem to be all geared up for it.
